NCAA 12 Demo Impressions

Whats everyone think about the game so far? Personally, I actually prefer to play the CPU on Heisman than All-American. They play so much smarter on offense. The game has a similar feel to NCAA 11, but thats not a bad thing considering 11 was pretty solid. Chopper gets the unfair advantage of playing with his team before anyone else since Oregon is available to play with haha.

Passing is a major struggle compared to NCAA 11 to me. I don't know if that's just because I'm used to sliders or what but it was a rough couple games for me. Also it didn't even take 1 game and I'm already skipping the intros. I've already seen them online and already they bore me so I just skip them.

Agreed on the intro. Not agreed on Heisman. All Heisman did is frustrate me. Computer had instant pressure and sacked me in a second or less 3 times, and the LE I was playing as couldn't do a spin move or anything without falling on his face. My DBs seemed to have their intelligence cut in half too, as I saw them butcher their zone assignments multiple times.

Lol I wish I could play with my ducks but unfortunately I haven't been able to download any game demos really because the ISP caps a usage at 1GB and then speeds SIGNIFICANTLY slows down!!! The demo never fully completly downloads and then disconnects from live, but thats ok cuz I'm getting it on release day and I know I'll get PLENTY of practice in haha.

You guys seem to be in the minority about the Heisman thing. A ton of people at OS, including myself, find Heisman to be the way to go so far. The only problem I have had with it so far is getting blown off the lines of scrimmages against Alabama. But we all know they're cheese so I don't worry about that too much.

I couldn't care less what the people at OS play. All they do is play the game 24/7 and know every little trick to everything in the game.

To be fair, this is only the demo and we'll be testing out a lot of sliders and settings in play now/testing games to see what we want to run with before we start the dynasty. But yeah, I definitely prefer playing the CPU on Heisman at this point.
